You're a solid white, spread collar shirt away from a truly awesome getup.

I know it's supposed to be sort of costumey, but the guys who looked best were the ones that would have looked best if there was no contest (NOBD, Parker, Baron).

Who pissed in your coffee?

The jacket and the vest aren't bad by themselves, but are bad together, and the shirt adds to the problem - a shirt which I suspect was never intended to be worn with a tie (never mind a pink one).

Sorry if that was more candor than expected in one sitting.

After a look back, I do agree that the vest and jacket is too much texture. I wasn't too proud of the tie + shirt combo either. Thanks for the advice!

I hate posted twice when I could have posted once, but I don't know how to get two quotes in one post. - I'm a 20 yr old and this is my first time on a forum, sad isn't it.

Thanks, but idk if my round face will compliment the spread collar too well..

How unusual. Where did you get such a suit?

I like to think of it as a convention solely for the purpose of peacocking and sprezzatura-ing, that there isn't actually a tradeshow going on as well.

For every posting you want to quote click on "multi q" and with the last posting you click on "quote" and voila you have them all together.

I got it from my boss; here was getting rid of a bunch of his clothes and I got this Jil Sander suit among a whole bunch of other stuff. Luckily for me we are just about the same size. And who knows it just might be worth something some day as my boss is somewhat well known.

How many individual items of sprezz can you find in my outfit? Bonus points if you can name the SF originator of each stolen idea. Additional bonus points if you can get him to cop to it.



Don't laugh. ^ I paid $1000 dollars for that tie clip.

Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)


Yes, those are tweed cargo pants. ^ Read 'em and weep, boys.



^ People who flip their watches around the other way are just trying way too hard in my opinion. I wear mine like a normal person.



I'm eager for Velcro dress shoes to hit the market. In the meantime, who can be bothered
?
That made me LOL.

Because there's no such thing as too many grey jumpers.
